Antec Storm T3 140mm Fan Review

Normalized Noise Tests

For these tests, I set the fan to speeds with noise output at the following predefined levels: 20/25/30/35/40/45 dBA. I skip the corresponding tests if the fan under the test cannot reach some noise levels. The speeds shown in the graph below are measured with the fan in a clear space inside my hemi-anechoic chamber without any obstacles. I set these speeds on the Longwin machine, but they slightly change because of the variable conditions that the device applies.

20 dBA Noise Output

  • Low speed
  • High enough airflow
  • Low static pressure
  • Average power consumption

25 dBA Noise Output

  • Low speed
  • High enough airflow
  • Low static pressure
  • Average power consumption

30 dBA Noise Output

  • Low speed
  • High airflow
  • Low static pressure
  • High power consumption

35 dBA Noise Output

  • Low speed
  • Very High airflow
  • Low static pressure
  • Top power consumption

  1. “At least, the advertised fan noise is not far from the reading I got”

    10^0.221 = 1.66

    so, 66% more, not sure I call that ‘not far’
